Act I of the nine-issue Marvel event concludes in the upcoming Avengers & X-Men AXIS #3, written by Rick Remender and illustrated by Leinil Yu. In this issue, the few remaining heroes try to defeat the nefarious Red Skull, who has harnessed the considerable powers of Charles Xavier and is determined to rid the world of "mutantkind." Magneto assembles a team of Marvel's most evil villains in order to defeat the threat for which he is responsible, and Scarlet Witch is forced to ally herself with Dr. Doom, who abused her powers to unleash M-Day. And, as we all know, the complete inversion between between good and evil, which is the entire premise for the next act of the series, is imminent.
